California Residents: Proposition 65 Warning
These lights are extremely visible in daylight and from far away. We’ve tested every light under the sun (pun intended) nothing comes close. Long-term durability is still TBD since we’ve only had them about a year—but with a 10-year warranty, I’ll be retired by then and it’ll be my sons problem.
